Date: Wed, 2 Apr 2003 20:43:22 +0600 Sender: linux-newbie-owner@vger.kernel.org Message-ID: <000601c2f926$3989c980$0100007f@localdomain> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: List-Id: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" To: linux-newbie@vger.kernel.org Hi, I've installed a new RH8.0 system after losing the old one. Problem is, the fresh installation doesn't support my (Myson) Ethernet card, and I have to load the ``fealnx'' module to get it to do so. And that module isn't already compiled and insertable. So: is it possible to compile the module and then insert it into the kernel, instead of recompiling the whole kernel, as I had to do the last time? (Not that I don't like recompiling the kernel; it just gets a little boring during the 5 hours it takes.) I've got the ``.config'' file from my previous RH8.0 installation (on the same system) and can put it up for anyone who's interested.
